Extract

In the course of the twelve months of the year 1936 our Society had three Royal Patrons. The signatures of King Edward VIII and King George VI have been added to our Roll of Fellows, separated by that of H.R.H. the Crown Prince of Sweden, who honoured us by accepting election as a Royal Fellow. To each of the two Sovereigns who have followed one another at so short an interval the Society offered an assurance of its loyal devotion to the Royal House under whose patronage it was born, has grown and prospered, and its prayers that it may be permitted to continue the studies of the antiquities and history of this kingdom and nation amid the blessings of a tranquil and prosperous reign, and with the encouragement of the Sovereign on whom all these national traditions are now centred.
